Withdrawal and Adjustment of Fees
Withdrawal is defined as the dropping of one’s entire program in a given term as opposed to dropping a portion of one’s program. Any student withdrawing from the program must notify the Student Affairs Office in writing. Additionally, students must complete a Notice of Withdrawal form. Notification of instructors or failure to attend classes does not constitute a formal withdrawal and will result in failing grades in all courses.
A student who withdraws will be charged a withdrawal fee of $75. In addition, the health service fees, the medical insurance premium, and all application fees, late fees, and other special fees are not refundable, and any coverage will remain in effect until the end of the term.
Any adjustment of the tuition that the student has paid is determined from the date on which the Student Affairs Office receives the student’s written notification. Students receiving financial aid will not be entitled to any portion of a refund until all Title IV financial aid programs are credited and all outstanding charges have been paid.
